THE TIDE WILL TURN.

The skipper stood on the windy pier.
20. mate" he said, 'set every sail;
For love is sweet II true and dear,
But bitter is love IL love must fail"
mo hurry, skipper, to put to sea;
The wind Is foul and the water low;
But the tide will turn IL you wait a wee.
And you'll get Yes where you got No."
The skipper turned again with a smile.
And he found his love in a better mood
For she had had time to think the while;
II shall find ten worse for one as good
So the tide has turned and he got Yes"
The sails were filed and the wind was fair.
Don't limit the pleasant words pray
They are for everyone everywhere.
The tide will turn II you wait wee,
And goods not lost II but Deferred
Surprising your plans have gone a-gley,
Don't fee away like frightened bird.
Say that you've asked favor in vain,
Tomorrow may be a better day,
The tide of fortune may turn again,
And you'll get Yes where you got May"
The tide will turn II the thing you mind
Is worth the waiting and worth the cost;
IL you seek and seek until you find,
Then your labor will never be lost.
For waiting is often working, you ste,
And though the water may now be low
The tide will turn II you bid wee,
And you'll get Yes" where you got NO"

Don't Magnify Troubles.

Robert Southey, the poet, once wrote to a
friend: 81 have told you of the Spaniard
who always put on his spectacles when he
was about to eat cherries, that they might
look bigger and more tempting. In like man
ner make the most of my enjoyments, and
though do not cast my cares away pack
them in as little compass as can, and carry
them as conveniently as can for myself, and
who seem to follow exactly the opposite plan
put on their spectacles when they look at
their troubles 10 make the troubles look big
ger, and pack their enjoyments away in as
small compass rs possible.

1t was towards the end of the first GEN.

palace, distinguished physician, discovered

this paste different kinds of papers To-day

Little Women.

The seven-year-old daughter of very
busy mother who, In consequence of her
husbands early death, was obliged to carry
on his business, was asked one day by q
friend what she was able to do in the way of
help.
II can only pray TO God and then hem the
busters" was the child's reply, In all serious
ness, but it showed that she had learned to
do the duty that lay nearest her, and as years
went on she developed into the steady, re-
liable, cheerful girl to whom the whole
household looked for help, and seldom, If
ever, looked In vain
